" Temple messenger?!"
Chen Mu Mu's pupils contracted as he recognized the newcomer.
Although he had never seen the Temple messenger, the image of the messenger had always been circulated in the Wilderness, and the red robe he wore could not be faked.
In the Wilderness, all tribes would worship the totem of the heavenly god during their annual festivals, and the red robes worn by the divine messengers represented the totem of the heavenly god. No one in the entire Wilderness dared to impersonate a Temple messenger.
At this moment, Chen Mu noticed that Chen Hongjie had come out of the house and was looking up at the old man in the sky.
"Rise!"
Chen Mu flew above Chen Hongjie, reached out and used his internal Dharma Power to generate a powerful wind pressure, which lifted Chen Hongjie into the air.
Upon seeing that it was Chen Mu, Chen Hongjie did not resist, and the two of them came together before the Temple messenger.
" Chen Hongjie, the leader of Chen Village, greets the messenger!"
"Talisman Master Chen Mu greets the messenger."
Xing Le glanced at Chen Mu and Chen Hongjie a few times, then fixed his gaze on Chen Mu.
"A talisman master? So, you're the creator of these puppet Rune Artifacts in Chen Village?"
Although Chen Mu's ability to fly using wind energy was unique, he could tell that neither Chen Mu nor Chen Hongjie had broken through to the Core Formation Realm yet, so he didn't take them seriously.
"That is indeed me!"
The Temple held a supreme position for humans living in the Wilderness, so Chen Mu dared not be negligent and spoke very politely.
" Chen Mu, do you know you are guilty?"
Xing Le's tone suddenly turned cold, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"Beep... Dangerous target detected. Should we initiate an attack?"
Chen Mu's mind immediately saw the request sent by Xiaozhi, and then he also saw Xing Le's strength information.
"Target realm: Peak Core Formation Realm; physical strength must match the realm..."
He has now phased out the ' Fate Vision ' device, and through Runic Body technology, he has retained all of his previous ' Fate Vision ' abilities in his right eye.
He also had a 'miniature Rune Core ' implanted in his cerebral cortex, containing a program clone of Xiaozhi, so he could directly communicate with Xiaozhi's main body at the Rune Research Institute using brainwaves.
After three years of construction, Chen Village's inner city has been transformed into a veritable 'rune-intelligent fortress'. It not only has arrays but also a large number of mechanical weapons. If a fight were to break out here, he might not be afraid of Xing Le in front of him.
"May I ask, envoy, what crime have I committed?"
Chen Mu stared directly at Xing Le, not at all intimidated by Xing Le's imposing aura.
"Hmph! My Temple's gods have long established rules that prohibit cultivators above the Core Formation Realm or those of the same level from participating in tribal wars."
Although your Spiritual Power cultivation is still at the True Spirit Realm, your Divine Soul must be at least at the Solid Realm Fourth Layer, right?
Since you used Rune Artifacts in the tribal war, come with me to the Temple to receive your punishment!
After saying that, he didn't listen to Chen Mu's explanation and reached out to grab Chen Mu.
When Xing Le made his move, Chen Mu discovered that the Spiritual Power of heaven and earth around him seemed to be controlled. He was unable to draw upon any external Spiritual Power and could only rely on the power within his body to withstand it.
He struggled with all his might, but his Spiritual Power power was no match for Xing Le, who was at the Peak Core Formation Realm.
" Instant Movement Talisman!"
At the last moment, he had no choice but to use spatial magic to teleport himself and Chen Hongjie to the ground.
Under the pressure of powerful Spiritual Power, the use of spatial talismans was also hindered. Chen Mu expended much more Dharma Power than usual before he could successfully teleport.
"Talismanic arts?"
Xing Le watched Chen Mu disappear before her eyes, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
"This talisman technique can actually be used even under my Spiritual Power seal. It seems he must possess a high-grade magic weapon or a high-level talisman."
The speed at which it was used was so fast that I didn't even realize what medium it used to send the message.
With that thought in mind, he charged downwards with great momentum.
"My lord, may I offer my explanation?"
Chen Mu looked up and shouted.
Although he was not afraid of Xing Le, if Xing Le were to fight with all his might, the entire Chen Village would probably be destroyed.
He did not want to be an enemy of this Temple messenger unless absolutely necessary.
"Hmph! If you want an explanation, I'll listen to it when we get back to the Temple."
Xing Le had no intention of giving up. In fact, he just wanted to give Chen Mu a warning and let Chen Mu know that the Temple was the true ruler of the Wilderness.
Suddenly, a white light shot out from behind Chen Village, heading straight for Xing Le.
"This is..."
Xing Le was taken aback. He sensed an unparalleled power within the white light and quickly used all his strength to create a Spiritual Power shield in front of him.
With a loud bang, the Spiritual Power shield was instantly torn apart by the white light, and he was blasted backward, crashing heavily into the wall of a house.
" Creation Realm! At least a powerhouse above the Creation Realm. Chen Village actually has a powerhouse above the Creation Realm. No wonder they dare to be so arrogant."
After a while, Xing Le came out of the house, looking weak and pale, clearly injured.
"As a messenger of the Temple, I am merely here to carry out the decree of the gods. I had no intention of disturbing your rest, senior. I hope you will forgive me."
He bowed respectfully towards the back of Chen Village.
Although he was Temple messenger representing the gods, in this world where strength is paramount, he still had to show sufficient respect to a peak expert like the Creation Realm.
Otherwise, if the other party really kills him in a fit of rage and then goes into hiding, even the Wilderness Divine Temple would find it difficult to avenge him.
"Roll!"
The old voice of the White Turtle echoed in the air.
Xing Le hesitated for a moment, a hint of resentment flashing in his eyes.
"But senior! Chen Mu has violated the rules set by the gods, I must take him away."
If you insist on stopping me, you will be making an enemy of my Temple, and the Temple will certainly not let this go easily. I hope you will think it over carefully.
Chen Mu pondered to himself, knowing that Xing Le's words made sense. If he couldn't convince Xing Le to go back today, there would definitely be endless trouble in the future.
" Grandpa Turtle, let me talk to him."
He activated his Divine Soul to communicate with the White Turtle, and then his figure flashed, appearing in front of Xing Le.
"My lord, you say that my use of Rune Artifacts in the Wilderness tribal wars is a violation of the rules set by the gods."
But if I say that I didn't participate in the creation of the Rune Artifacts, then you can't say that I used Rune Artifacts in the war, right?"
Xing Le looked up at Chen Mu and let out a cold snort.
"Kid, if you want to argue, at least give a reasonable reason."
"How could such a powerful puppet Rune Artifacts not have been made by a talisman master at least at the Solid Realm Fourth Layer?"
Chen Mu smiled and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.
"How about this, Your Excellency, you will personally observe my disciples making puppet Rune Artifacts."
If there is any type of puppet Rune Artifacts used on the battlefield that they cannot create, then I will bind my hands and submit to the envoy's judgment.
Xing Le glanced at Chen Mu suspiciously, wondering what trick Chen Mu was up to.
However, he couldn't do anything to Chen Mu now, and he didn't dare to wake up the Creation Realm expert in the Temple over such a small matter, so he simply agreed to Chen Mu's request.
"Alright! Let's see what tricks you can pull."
